Ulato Avei and husband William Kwara recently opened Koke Hanua bar and conference area at their home in Boera, Central Province, after successfully obtaining a loan from the National Development Bank.
“Koke is the name of the area and Hanua means villa in our language, so it’s translated to Koke Villa,” says Ulato.
One very visible sight customers will appreciate is the lush mangrove overlooking the sea.
